This is certainly.. different for Natalie. I can't tell whether I like it or not, I'll need to see the editorial to get a full picture of what they were going for.

Wow! Finally an original Spring cover... Never seen Natalie Portman look like this. Stunning!

 

[vogue28]

It's nice but everything about the choice of cover shot and text placement just reminds me too much of The Edit, as opposed to Porter. I miss when Porter would do more closeup cover images. But yeah... don't hate it!

Maybe it's just my mind, but here, she looks like a prostitute hanging out on a sunny day, when the going is still good, feeling free... before night falls and the work begins.

Yeah, I see the tawdry undertones as well, it's not to my taste. I think it's the amateur hair and make-up. The concept does show promise though. Cass Bird is on a roll again with Porter and Missoni. Hope she'll keep it up.

such gorgeous cover! so nice to see natalie in a different dimension.

I’m a little sad Porter has lost ‘it’ of late. I really pinned all my hopes on it at one point to be the UK glossy that would save us all.

I can't figure out why but something doesn't work here for me. Is it the sexy rockabilly/Carmen Miranda-esque pinup styling on Portman? Maybe she looks a little uncomfortable, or is it the composition? Can't put my finger on it...

Eyebrows don't look good, for sure.

Horrible styling high fashion Daisy Duke?

I like it, it feels fresh and nice for spring and it's a different side of Natalie.

 

[Khabeer]

I like this. Looks fresh and she looks great

 

[Fernini]

Better than Gizzzelles's Vogue Italia.

 

[happycanadian]

I love it! It's great to see a totally different side of her. And I think she was starting to feel a lot older than she actually is. This is fresh and versatile.

Yeah, it's kinda trashy ... but she's Natalie Portman - nobody could ever really think of her as inelegant.

All I can see is those ugly earrings. They make her ears look very pointy, like an elf

 

[gossiping]

nice. however, feels waaaay too summer-y right now for a british magazine. haha.

 

[Urban Stylin]

Its actually quite stunning tho it would have been better with one car
